Abstract

This Circular Letter establishes the Timber Legality Verification Systems as a Follow-Up Action of No. P.43/Menhut-II/2014 and Permenlhk No. P.95/Menhut-II/2014). Timber Legality Verification System (SVLK) is a system that guarantees the sustainability of forest management and/or timber legality and traceability through certification of sustainable production forest management (PHPL), as well as timber legality certification (LK) certification and supplier conformity declaration (DKP). Based on the evaluation of SVLK implementation, it is necessary to simplify and provide convenience for small and medium industries in implementing SVLK. In relation to the above, the Ministry revised some regulations related to SVLK for the smooth implementation of the Circular Letter of the Director General of Forest Business Development.
